Divine Forged City, the square was crowded with onlookers because today there was 'entertainment' to watch again.
In this busy and entertainment-lacking country, executions were one of the few pleasures for many, especially since today's hanging was of an Empire noble.
"You cannot do this to me!"
"I have fought for the Empire, I have bled for His Majesty, I demand to see His Majesty!"
The heart-wrenching curses and pleas eventually fell into silence. The once-feared Beast Fighting Arena Master, a military noble who made his mark on the battlefield, was now just a 300-pound 'corpse'.
"Hang him!"
"Long live His Majesty!"
The surrounding crowd was jubilant. Hanging a noble lord was as joyous as a festival for them.
However, in the splendid palace, the Emperor on the golden throne found no joy in this.
"Your Majesty, the execution has been carried out."
